Poignant, dreamlike and beautiful and written following the sudden loss of her mother and brother, ‘Oracles’ was Silvera’s way to transmute her grief into a cathartic work of art.

The result is a haunting yet life-affirming collection of songs whose lyrics explore loss, love, salvation and the journey towards acceptance, themes that are underscored by beguiling, weaving choral lines, mellifluous Debussian piano melodies, subtly off-kilter percussion and rapturous strings, all unified by Silvera’s dynamic vocal style which evokes the delicate yet theatrical prowess of Kate Bush, combined with what the Arts Desk described as a “Björklike spontaneity.”

LP pressed on 180gm vinyl.

“Stunning… Silvera mixes folk elements with magical storytelling” – The Guardian

“There’s both a lavish, vivid imagination and an intense intimacy at play… haunting, grown-up fairy-tales” – Metro

“A wonderful piece of modern folk… its deftness and surety of touch means it’s damned pleasing” – The Quietus

For fans of Björk, Kate Bush, Imogen Heap. ? Ana’s extraordinary vocal performances are supported by a cast of Jazz royalty, including Bill Laurance (Snarky Puppy), Jasper Høiby (Phronesis) and Jacob Smedegaard (Fiction, Du Blonde).
